As the sun was rising over the ocean, these plane contrails where very bright, and interesting how the all seem to be coming from the same location .... heading off somewhere ...

Seeing the sea at night along the coast of Maryland with the light from the hotels hitting down on the ocean ... there was the slightest hint of haze in the air that picked up on that lighting as well out in the clear sky, adding the blue color there among the stars.

It was low tide and there was a section of sand cut out by the sea about 8 feet tall. This allowed me to be below that and just between the waves coming in so that my shadow and that of the tripod is not being cast onto the sand and waves.

I shot this splitting the horizon figuring on getting the two 16 by 9 ratio captures from the one image. The one here focusing more on the sky and star above the sea and waves (and just a hint of the beach). The other comp focuses more on the beach and sea. May post that one later. Both turned out pretty cool I think.

... along the Atlantic Ocean in Maryland.

Blue hour moment on the Atlantic Ocean.

Afternoon long exposure taken with stacked ND Filters along the coast of Maryland.

At least they have blue tones there in the late evening.

The Atlantic Ocean rushes by the coast of Maryland.

Certainly not from the southwest, here the Atlantic Ocean splashes into the coast of Maine ... from last year's summer excursion.

Wave action along the beach in Ocean City.

You'll have to ask Wanda about the title... Sometimes I get a little excited about a nice sunset. My apologies Wanda!

Beach along the New Hampshire Atlantic coastline.

The Atlantic Ocean once again starts to spread in over the rocks.

Stone jetty along the beach in Ocean City, Maryland. Early morning capture. The light on the beach and the jetty is from the boardwalk that lines the beach at this section.

Set the shutter to 6 seconds and the ISO to 2500 here to see the effects under the night light and moonlight along the ocean.

Atlantic Ocean along the coast of Maryland.

... at least a small portion of it along the Atlantic Ocean as can be seen in Maine.

The freighter Telamon leaked off the Canary Island of Lanzarote in 1981 and was towed to the coast near Arrecife, where it can still be seen today.

Atlantic Ocean and moon rise.

Low-tide and good light help show the beauty of the Cape Elizabeth coastline in Maine, October, 2021. While all were focused on the iconic Portland Head Light, I liked this look down the Atlantic coast to its south. The hues of these rocks drew my eye the entire time we were visiting coastal Maine.

Nags Head, North Carolina

... Late evening light and contrasts across the moody ocean and rocks in this long exposure.

Moody clouds covered the early morning sky over the ocean and beach.

Here the water flows across the beach and back out to sea along the one of the sandy beach sections in Maine.

Ocean waves rushing ashore over the rocks in York, Maine.

Late evening descends there in York, Maine at low tide.

... Between Night & Day :)

Captures taken about 12 hours apart. Both were at two seconds exposure time, one at ISO 100 and a 400ND Filter on, and the other at ISO 3200.
